Museu Aberto de Arte Urbana de São Paulo

The Museu Aberto de Arte Urbana spans along the elevated section of Metro Line 1, featuring 66 graffiti panels on concrete pillars between Santana and Portuguesa-Tietê stations.

The museum emerged in 2011 after eleven graffiti artists were arrested, leading to collaboration between artists and the State Culture Department to create authorized spaces.

The exhibited artworks represent various themes including urban life, nature, periphery, and tributes to personalities through the perspectives of 58 different artists.

The museum extends over two thousand square meters of concrete pillars, each measuring four meters in height, accessible by bicycle path or while walking along Avenida Cruzeiro do Sul.

Artists renew the murals annually using three thousand spray cans and forty latex paint containers to maintain fresh artworks on the concrete structures.
